FX37 (Europe)
A Europe-specific FX37 was unveiled at the 2008 Paris Motor Show, and went on sale in Europe in October, 2008 with the VQ37VHR. By combining excellent handling and punchy performance with genuine luxury and SUV practicality, FX37 will appeal to customers who appreciate quality and individuality." Europeans get the 320-hp FX37 as their entry level model instead of the FX35, which will be available in FX37 GT and FX37S versions. The FX37 GT comes standard with 20-inch alloy wheels, electric and heated/ventilated front seats, adaptive xenons, parking camera sensors, all-wheel-drive and a 7-speed automatic with paddle shifting. The FX37S gets 21 inch alloy wheels, Continuous Damping Control and sports seats.
Pricing for the 2009 Infiniti FX37 in Europe starts at €55,950 ($79,437 USD).
FX30 turbo diesel (Europe)
Infiniti has launched a new 3.0-liter V6 (V9X Engine) diesel engine that will power the EX, FX and M models. The V6 engine delivers a total of 240 hp (179 kW), 406 lb·ft (550 N·m) at 2,500 rpm. The engine is mated to a seven-speed automatic transmission. It was launched in the 2010 Geneva Motor Show.
Phase two of Infiniti’s quiet assault on the European luxury car market is underway with the arrival of a newly developed 3.0-litre V6 diesel. The engine, the first in the brand’s 20 year history, has been specifically designed to deliver high levels of refined performance in line with Infiniti philosophy. It will initially be available in both the acclaimed EX and FX crossovers and later in the Infiniti M luxury performance sedan.Although a V8 diesel engine was investigated, the V6 format was identified early on as the ideal layout for the unit, providing the optimum balance between overall performance, refinement and volume potential across the three Alliance brands. Target performance was 238 PS (175 kW), 500 N·m (370 lb·ft) of torque and early compliance with forthcoming Euro 5 emission legislation.
Power output is bang on target at 175 kW (238 PS) while the class-leading torque output of 550 Nm (for rear and four-wheel drive applications) is better than the target. Better still, peak torque is achieved from as low as 1,750 rpm and is available all the way to 2,500 rpm, while as much as 500 N·m (370 lb·ft) is available from a mere 1,500 rpm. Idle speed is an exceptionally low 650 rpm with none of the NVH usually associated with a diesel.

Friend of my got diesel. FX30d. The biggest pros is consumption!
9-10 l/100km ( i think its around 20 MPG or better!) of diesel fuel.
 
Hi,

2010 Infiniti FX30ds


3.0-litre V6 that develops 235 bhp and 550Nm (406 lb ft) of torque from 1750rpm.
7-speed Adaptive Shift Control automatic transmission
0-62 mph in just 8.3 seconds
Fuel consumption on the combined cycle is trimmed to 31.4 mpg (9.0l/100km) while CO2 emissions drop to 238 g/km.
The Infiniti FX30d S derivatives ramp up the sporting appeal with powered front sports seats, Continuous Damping Control (CDC) shock absorbers, 21-inch alloy wheels and,
Rear Active Steering (RAS), which enhances both stability and agility.
To distinguish the S, the model comes with smoked-glass headlamps and dark chrome exterior air vent and sill strip.
 
The diesel engine seems to be the big deal over here in Germany. From what I have heard they are selling pretty well.
 
My Infiniti Dealer in Hamburg told me, in the last time she selling the FX only the Diesel model.

The FX50 is in Germany not a great deal.
 
The Infiniti Center in Hamburg have Performance-Chips for the Diesel model.

OEM: 175KW / 235PS 550 NM

Performance: 206KW / 280PS 610 NM :tup:

That's not too shabby, almost a 20% gain from just a chip. Wish I could drop a chip in and get 20% :eek.:.

That is how much diesel engine gain from chip along with the turbo engines. The NA engines gains are minimal.
